    Hi Amy so they have been testing you for other things which came out negative but not further investigating whats causing the constant itching and pain?  Obviously the treatment for BV isnt helping you much either. Says picture warning but no picture showing.  Are you avoiding bathing or showering using perfumed soap or shower gel, not wearing nylon pants, could it be pant liners, there are some that cause a bad reaction with chemicals in them, made mum red raw so we both changed  pant liners which dont irritate. Dont use talc either. Is the itching and pain internal or external?  How old are you, am asking as you say youve had this for yrs now.
